-<h1>Zip Encoding Class</h1>
-<p>CodeIgniter's Zip Encoding Class classes permit you to create Zip archives. Archives can be downloaded to your
-desktop or saved to a directory.</p>
-
-
-<h2>Initializing the Class</h2>
-<p>Like most other classes in CodeIgniter, the Zip class is initialized in your controller using the <dfn>$this->load->library</dfn> function:</p>
-
-<code>$this->load->library('zip');</code>
-<p>Once loaded, the Zip library object will be available using: <dfn>$this->zip</dfn></p>
-
-
-<h2>Usage Example</h2>
-
-<p>This example demonstrates how to compress a file, save it to a folder on your server, and download it to your desktop.</p>
-
-<code>
-$name = 'mydata1.txt';<br />
-$data = 'A Data String!';<br />
-<br />
-$this->zip->add_data($name, $data);<br />
-<br />
-// Write the zip file to a folder on your server. Name it "my_backup.zip"<br />
-$this->zip->archive('/path/to/directory/my_backup.zip');
-<br /><br />
- // Download the file to your desktop. Name it "my_backup.zip"<br />
-$this->zip->download('my_backup.zip');
-</code>
-
-<h1>Function Reference</h1>
-
-<h2>$this->zip->add_data()</h2>
-
-<p>Permits you to add data to the Zip archive. The first parameter must contain the name you would like
-given to the file, the second parameter must contain the file data as a string:</p>
-
-<code>
-$name = 'my_bio.txt';<br />
-$data = 'I was born in an elevator...';<br />
-<br />
-$this->zip->add_data($name, $data);
-</code>
-
-<p>You are allowed multiple calls to this function in order to
-add several files to your archive. Example:</p>
-
-<code>
-$name = 'mydata1.txt';<br />
-$data = 'A Data String!';<br />
-$this->zip->add_data($name, $data);<br />
-<br />
-$name = 'mydata2.txt';<br />
-$data = 'Another Data String!';<br />
-$this->zip->add_data($name, $data);<br />
-</code>
-
-<p>Or you can pass multiple files using an array:</p>
-
-<code>
-$data = array(<br />
- 'mydata1.txt' => 'A Data String!',<br />
- 'mydata2.txt' => 'Another Data String!'<br />
- );<br />
-<br />
-$this->zip->add_data($data);<br />
-<br />
-$this->zip->download('my_backup.zip');
-</code>
-
-<p>If you would like your compressed data organized into sub-folders, include the path as part of the filename:</p>
-
-<code>
-$name = '<kbd>personal/</kbd>my_bio.txt';<br />
-$data = 'I was born in an elevator...';<br />
-<br />
-$this->zip->add_data($name, $data);
-</code>
-
-<p>The above example will place <dfn>my_bio.txt</dfn> inside a folder called <kbd>personal</kbd>.</p>
-
-
-<h2>$this->zip->add_dir()</h2>
-
-<p>Permits you to add a directory. Usually this function is unnecessary since you can place your data into folders when
-using <dfn>$this->zip->add_data()</dfn>, but if you would like to create an empty folder you can do so. Example:</p>
-
-<code>$this->zip->add_dir('myfolder'); // Creates a folder called "myfolder"</code>
-
-
-
-<h2>$this->zip->read_file()</h2>
-
-<p>Permits you to compress a file that already exists somewhere on your server. Supply a file path and the zip class will
-read it and add it to the archive:</p>
-
-<code>
-$path = '/path/to/photo.jpg';<br /><br />
-$this->zip->read_file($path);
-<br /><br />
- // Download the file to your desktop. Name it "my_backup.zip"<br />
-$this->zip->download('my_backup.zip');
-</code>
-
-<p>If you would like the Zip archive to maintain the directory structure of the file in it, pass <kbd>TRUE</kbd> (boolean) in the
-second parameter. Example:</p>
-
-
-<code>
-$path = '/path/to/photo.jpg';<br /><br />
-$this->zip->read_file($path, <kbd>TRUE</kbd>);
-<br /><br />
- // Download the file to your desktop. Name it "my_backup.zip"<br />
-$this->zip->download('my_backup.zip');
-</code>
-
-<p>In the above example, <dfn>photo.jpg</dfn> will be placed inside two folders: <kbd>path/to/</kbd></p>
-
-
-
-<h2>$this->zip->read_dir()</h2>
-
-<p>Permits you to compress a folder (and its contents) that already exists somewhere on your server. Supply a file path to the
-directory and the zip class will recursively read it and recreate it as a Zip archive. All files contained within the
-supplied path will be encoded, as will any sub-folders contained within it. Example:</p>
-
-<code>
-$path = '/path/to/your/directory/';<br /><br />
-$this->zip->read_dir($path);
-<br /><br />
- // Download the file to your desktop. Name it "my_backup.zip"<br />
-$this->zip->download('my_backup.zip');
-</code>
-
-
-
-
-<h2>$this->zip->archive()</h2>
-
-<p>Writes the Zip-encoded file to a directory on your server. Submit a valid server path ending in the file name. Make sure the
-directory is writable (666 or 777 is usually OK). Example:</p>
-
-<code>$this->zip->archive('/path/to/folder/myarchive.zip'); // Creates a file named myarchive.zip</code>
-
-
-<h2>$this->zip->download()</h2>
-
-<p>Causes the Zip file to be downloaded from your server. The function must be passed the name you would like the zip file called.
-Example:</p>
-
-<code>$this->zip->download('latest_stuff.zip'); // File will be named "latest_stuff.zip"</code>
-
-<p class="important"><strong>Note:</strong> Do not display any data in the controller in which you call this function since it sends various server headers
-that cause the download to happen and the file to be treated as binary.</p>
-
-
-<h2>$this->zip->get_zip()</h2>
-
-<p>Returns the Zip-compressed file data. Generally you will not need this function unless you want to do something unique with the data.
-Example:</p>
-
-<code>
-$name = 'my_bio.txt';<br />
-$data = 'I was born in an elevator...';<br />
-<br />
-$this->zip->add_data($name, $data);<br /><br />
-
-$zip_file = $this->zip->get_zip();
-</code>
-
-
-<h2>$this->zip->clear_data()</h2>
-
-<p>The Zip class caches your zip data so that it doesn't need to recompile the Zip archive for each function you use above.
-If, however, you need to create multiple Zips, each with different data, you can clear the cache between calls. Example:</p>
-
-<code>
-$name = 'my_bio.txt';<br />
-$data = 'I was born in an elevator...';<br />
-<br />
-$this->zip->add_data($name, $data);<br />
-$zip_file = $this->zip->get_zip();<br />
-<br />
-<kbd>$this->zip->clear_data();</kbd>
-<br /><br />
-
-$name = 'photo.jpg';<br />
-$this->zip->read_file("/path/to/photo.jpg"); // Read the file's contents<br />
-<br /><br />
-$this->zip->download('myphotos.zip');
-</code>
